There's often a stigma of van dwellers being jobless, broke and dirty. I wanted to share my story of why I live in a van by choice and my future aspirations with the lifestyle.
My name is Krystal and I am a studio portrait photographer, going to college and living in a van. I'm sharing the journey for my personal documentation & to inspire others to pursue what they desire regardless of the setbacks.

You said one video changed and opened your mind to van life. Two years ago, you did the same for me and I'm prepping for my journey.

Your in school take a wood working class , remodel your van as your class project.

Dennis Gebo damn that’s actually a good idea! I’m about to build my van and I was gonna bootleg it all lol

Very impressed with your independence at such a young age. I have a daughter a few years older than you so the mom in me is screaming nooooo don't say where you are!!!!

You go girl! You're making good decisions for what life has dealt you. I'm not quite finished binge watching your videos, but I can tell you're improving and studying more than some vandwellers on how to do YT. It's a lot of work. I've been a van dweller before and hope to soon sell my home and hitt the road again.

My Son's Mother thanks for the support! It’s truly an exciting lifestyle :)

Thanks for sharing. I've got a 2002 Ford. About 5 months in and been taking road trips to natural hot springs here in Colorado to satisfy the bug until I'm full time on the road. Pretty much one of the best decisions I've ever made. Have fun!

I stayed in a van sometimes but it was not mine. The summers get tough but they seem great for camping and shelter from the rain and cold. I had a 5 door SUV it's similar.

I heart you. I live in a van and also a portrait photographer. I do all kinds of photography but i get paid for my portraits. I love being a freelance photographer. Cant wait to watch more of your journey. Ive been wanting to start vlogging but i hate the way i look and sound on camera lol

Good luck with your adventures and your building process! I'll be buying a van next semester to live in through the end of my college career. It's an amazing option for those trying to save money/wanting to travel or spend more time in nature/ getting out of the habit of ”needing” so much unnecessary crap

@KrystalVentures 5 лет назад

I love your videos already but van life is definitely not a possibility for me Lol My city doesn't have any public showers and bathrooms. If you want to use the toilet from someplace, you gotta pay for something or consume anything from it. There's also no cheap laundry places. There's only Clean USA and since they can only do laundry for you, it costs A LOT more than paying a few bucks to do it yourself (like, 800$ just for washing 50 pieces a month).

I really want to do this, how do you get reliable parking? does your school let you sleep in your vehicle in school parking lots?

So many laws against sleeping in your vehicle ... one needs to research.. a lot The influx of novice van and rv’s boondocking is noticeable and legal parking spaces are disappearing Walmart doesn’t even allow overnight parking anymore So I find it irresponsible to encourage others to jump in without researching the pitfalls first Don’t get me wrong it’s great Just not for everyone It’s not cheap or easy
